Become a ‘Guardian of Alterra’ and Earn a Highly Exclusive Community Shield!

[Cassric]

This program is no longer being used

Spacetime Studios is proud to unveil a special Pocket Legends community program: the Guardians of Alterra.

What are they? Simply put, Guardians of Alterra are players of Pocket Legends and contributing members of the community that have distinguished themselves as a valuable player to both Spacetime Studios and to other Pocket Legends players.

How are Guardians distinguished from other players? We have designed a very unique and special shield for Guardians. Players wearing the shield below have distinguished themselves in the world of Alterra.

How do I become a Guardian of Alterra? Guardians are selected by the staff of Spacetime Studios and have generally contributed to the play community in some or all of the following ways:

• Providing useful and constructive feedback to both players and Spacetime Studios developers.

• Helping to keep the game forums clean and friendly by reporting inappropriate posts and attempting to diffuse arguments or flame wars.

• Fostering community development through player run events, good will, etc.

• Being visible, helpful, and constructive.

Becoming a Guardian of Alterra is not something that you can ask or apply for. It is given to those who do good stuff without expecting recognition.

The following individuals are Guardians of Alterra. In the future, we will announce more as this will be an ongoing program.

Oh wow - definitely feelin' the love! Thanks, this was totally unexpected!

Maye for you, but I just saw this thread after 2 weeks on the forum, and saw this coming a mile away.

[DawnInfinity]

Yay! Congratulations, guys! You totally deserve it.

EDIT: Extra congrats for Yanis!

[thefirehawk]

anyone that gets that award deserves to be called a guardian. great job guys

[Royce]

This is an awesome idea, and I'm very proud to be a part of it. This game is excellent, but what makes it exceptional is the great community, which is largely fostered by the great interaction with the developers. A program like this can only make our already top-notch community even better

[Ellyidol]

Congratulations guys! No doubt you guys deserve this, I personally have learned a lot from you guys

[Cascade]

I apologize for what i was saying in the chatbox im over it now Congratulations to everyone that got nominated and will get nominated

[likwid]

This is great incentive to anyone that enjoys this game. Congrats guys.

[Xymorg]

Congrats to you all!

I don't play enough to expect to know all of you, but the ones I do know by reputation & your forum posts are clearly a core group of A+++ would buy again community contributors.

I'm a bit meh on the idea that it's some sort of ongoing program, though. It seems like the kind of thing that overtly trying to acheive should automatically DQ you for. Keep it pure & make it something different if you decide to recognize future people. If the guy who came up with the titles associated with the "x kills Desvastatrix!" notices is still around, uniqueness shouldn't be a problem.

Some of the snarkier folk here are pretty entertaining. I'm not brave enough to name any names, but trolling a community recognition thread like this one is a pretty impressive move... Obviously the prize for the fun trolls would be less noble, something like a "Wit-Like Rapier" or a "Concerning Helm of the Concern Troll" & outright trolling will still just get you Banned so there has to be some skill involved.

The community neither needs, nor really has room for another Royce or Yanis. Those spots are filled quite nicely.

[KingGiant]

Been shadowing the forums for a while now. These guys all def deserve this award!

[wolfendragon]

Gongrats to the guardians hope to join them soon

[F1zzzzp0p]

[jakaniz]

[Vindara]

[devinrhall]

The tones of entitlement on this thread are impressive.

I'm nice, I should be entitled to the thing that I never knew existed but now should immediately have earned by virtue of my having met the requirements that have no clear definition at this time.

Seriously?

The shield isn't a quest item, an achievement, or the result of a recipe.

It's a gift, given by the devs to the people they wished to express gratitude to.

You can't earn a gift, otherwise it's not a gift.

If you perform a service and demand a tip, it's no longer a tip, it's a fee.

It may be frustrating to feel you don't know how to get something you want, but being nice to someone doesn't entitle you to their stuff.

I doubt I can approach one of these new guardians and demand they give me items, run me through quests and order me a pizza because they got the shield.

If you pay money, buy platinum, and are forbidden to purchase something ingame that everyone else can get, then, and only then, are you being denied something you are entitled to by virtue of your actions.

PS: If you are nice, and someone else is nice, and they get noticed and you do not, that doesn't make you any less nice, which at the end of the day, is a whole lot more valuable and important than a shield.
